Jeff Quiros Artist

My take on a classic subject. Vibrant colors and crisp forms bringing joy and wonder to the observer.

I really hope this one finds a good home and prints of it proliferate far and wide. I like it a lot and I want to share it. I think it represents the zenith of where my art is right now … and the great thing about creativity is that there are future zeniths yet to come!

A monumental piece of color and form … harks back to my grammar school days of decorating bulletin boards with colored construction paper cut with scissors and pinned to the cork.

Minimalist enjoyment in the sight of a bright green apple in a tree. Reminds me of a motorcycle ride through the orchards back in the warm days of Davis.

A bit different … this is a depiction of a mood, or, more exactly, an attitude. I think it could do a lot to brighten the right room.

I have been exploring Calder-like forms and colors appearing to be suspended as if in a mobile. What do you think of this journey?

Back to minimalist roots for this stark sunrise. Feel the warm, life giving rays on your face and rejoice.

A “fun” one in that it radiates joy and play. Reminiscent of Matisse’s cut-outs and of my own roots in designing classroom bulletin board displays using scissors and construction paper in grade school. I’ve been doing this a long time.

I started this with a squiggle and then turned it into this bold, minimalist expression. I think it could brighten many different kinds of places and could spark many conversations.

I have been preoccupied with images of the devastation, loss of life and property, in the Southern California fires … but also with the outpouring of compassion, care and help. Our survival depends on our care for one another and this has been a silver lining in very dark cloud.
